[sword-devel] Building GnomeSword on Fedora 10

[fred smith]

Hi!

Trying to build GnomeSword (latest) from source on Fedora 10.

i've downloaded, built, and installed Sword 1.5.11.

I unpack gnomesword, run ./configure, and here's what I get:

$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... (cached) yes
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking for GNOME... no

so, what is it trying to tell me in that last line? That I don't have
Gnome on my system? Balderdash! :) I surely do!

It appears to be looking for GNOME.pc in the pkgconfig data. There
isn't one, sure enough. But there isn't one on my Centos box either,
and it runs a Gnome desktop too.

What do I need to install to make this work? Or other required
incantations?

Thanks!
